A vocal selection was given by Miss Ruth Eennett and John Lindsev. Many Pastoral Changes. It is expected that there will be several impertant pastoral changes in the conference this year. Rev. J. W.

J. E. ADAMS. pressed the.hope to coninue going to conference while he is still able to be about. He is blind. Iev. Mr. Estes W rdmitted to the conference in 1859 as n ordained minister. He retired from active ministry only last year. During his long service in the church he held important pastorates in Brooklyn, N. Y. One of his parishes was at Oyster Bay, L.
